Each term, schools can borrow a selection of boxes to support classroom teaching and boost the school library stock in key topic areas. Boxes include:
- project
- fiction
- language
- museum
How many boxes can I borrow?
The total number of boxes that can be borrowed by a school each term is based on the number of pupils on roll. See table below.
